About Me

Hello! My name is Anthony Kershner and I am from Buffalo, New York.  I am a sophomore at The University of Tampa and I am studying Communication and Public Relations. I am a hardworking individual who enjoys learning new things. Some of my favorite things to do include: going to the beach, taking long walks, exercising, and reading books. I have read each book in the Harry Potter series at least three times. My favorite sport is swimming. I lifeguard at a country club over the summer, which I thoroughly enjoy because I love working with children and being outdoors. I am excited to take Beginning Digital Arts because I don't have any experience working with programs such as Photoshop or Illustrator. I hope to understand more about how to navigate these programs. I also enjoy thinking creatively and hope to express that in the projects and work that I complete in this course.

Facebook, Snapchat, and Instagram are among the most popular social media platforms that have utilized this booming trend. More recently, the ability to live stream via different outlets have boosted engagement for companies across the world. Real-time marketing stems from delivering the appropriate content at the proper and respective time. Furthermore, it is a way in which a company can react or respond to current events and use the situation to their advantage through the production of creative and original material.
